Borderline Lyrics

Borderline by Alison Krauss

Borderline
So you're on your own
Looking down the road
That goes only by one name
And you don't need the signs
To see lonely still runs both ways.

So who's the fool
That would think the ties
Would be better off undone
Did your heart heed the warning
When you veered from the path
That was narrow, right, and straight.

On the borderline
Somewhere between that plight for freedom
Feeling like you can't move on
But tow will be the tide
Takes you off of my mind
And out of my heart I know
And when you cross over there's no turning back
Once that burning bridge is gone.

I may lose
But I'm in it for the long run
Loving you for good reason
Could be the wrong one
I don't want to lose control
But the heart won't learn
To let well enough alone.

On the borderline
Somewhere between that plight for freedom
Feeling like you can't move on
But tow will be the tide
Takes you off of my mind
And out of my heart I know
And when you cross over there's no turning back
Once that burning bridge is gone.

So you're on your own
Looking down the road
That goes only by one name.
